Episode #12 - Okay, Boomtown w/ Spencer Gardner

Episode #14 - Spokane Journalism & Social Democracy w/ Pia Hallenberg

Pia Hallenberg grew up near Copenhagen and has lived in the U.S. for almost 30 years, 28 of them in Spokane. Benji discovers Pia's story, the story of an immigrant, a mother, and a journalist, at an especially relevant moment when many (most) Americans are hopeful to learn from the social and political principles that underpin her home country of Denmark.

Episode #13 - Watchmen Finale (finally).

The holidays prevented us from getting this out on time, but with the recent announcement that HBO was not intending to produce a second season of their hit show, Watchmen, we decided to publish this 2.5 hour series finale and overall show recap and review. (Originally recorded in early January)

Episode #12 - Okay, Boomtown w/ Spencer Gardner

Luke talks with transit planner and new Spokie Spencer Gardner about the genius of early cities, the scourge of neighborhood pyramid schemes, and how planning resilient towns is more like gardening and less like playing Sim City. When he’s not helping make your bike commute easier, Spencer writes for strongtowns.org

Episode #11 - Watchmen: A God Walks Into "Abar" w/ Autumn Reed

The penultimate episode of Watchmen has driven a wedge between our co-hosts. Benji loved it (mostly). Autumn (really) wasn't having it.

Episode #10 - Everything Electric Cars w/ David Ferris

If, like Benji, you've had basic and intermediate questions about electric cars, this is your episode. David Ferris has written about energy and the environment for Popular Science, New York Times, and for the last six years, E&E News. Ferris recently completed an 8,000 mile road trip in three electric cars. He shares his many thoughts about that experience and electric car industry in general.
